The Bible A Book Of Truth

ISRAELIS ARE ENTITLED TO LIVE IN THEIR OWN LAND OF ISRAEL ‘The Lord God said to Abram, "Leave your country, your relatives and your father's house and go to the land I will show you. I will make of you a great nation. I will bless you and make your name great. You will be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you and I will curse those who curse you. In you will all of the families of the earth be blessed … I will give this land to your descendants" (Genesis 12:1 to 3 & 7). ‘The Lord said to Abram after Lot was separated from him, "Lift up your eyes and from the place where you are, look north, south, east and west, for all the land you can see I will give to you and to your offspring forever. I will make your offspring as numerous as the dust of the earth … Arise, walk through the length and breadth of this land for I will give it to you" (Genesis 13:14 to 17). ‘The Lord God made a covenant with Abram saying, "To your descendents I have given...

BEATITUDES ‘Jesus opened His mouth and taught the disciples saying,  Blessed are the poor in spirit for theirs is the  Kingdom of Heaven.  Blessed are those who mourn for they will be comforted.  Blessed are the gentle for they  will inherit the earth.  Blessed are those who hunger and thirst after righteousness for they will be filled. Blessed are the merciful for they will obtain mercy.  Blessed are the pure in heart for they will see God. Blessed are the peacemakers for they will be called children of God.  Blessed are those who have been  persecuted for righteousness' sake for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven.  Blessed are you when people  reproach you, persecute you and say all kinds of evil against you falsely for My sake.  Rejoice and be  exceedingly glad for great is your reward in heaven.  That is how they persecuted the prophets who were  before you’” (Matthew 5:2 to 12) ...

EGYPT'S TEN PLAGUES The Pharaoh in the time of Moses was a hard, stubborn and ruthless man. His heart was very hard and the  Lord hardened his heart even more so.  He would not initially allow the Hebrews to leave Egypt but after ten  horrific plagues, the Pharaoh forced the Hebrews to flee and they took tons of gold, silver, precious stones, flocks, herds and clothing as payment for many years of unpaid slavery.  They were not slaves when they first  went into Egypt, but after Joseph died and a new Pharaoh arose, the Hebrews were then forced to be  slaves.  In spite of their slavery the Hebrews had so many children, at one point in time the Hebrews outnumbered the Egyptians. The ten plagues were divine judgement on a very idolatrous nation. See more at: www.bibleabookoftruth.com

WHAT THE BIBLE MEANS BY ALL FLESH In the Bible, the term all flesh is used according to the context in which it is placed within the Word of God. Sometimes ‘all flesh’ means every living thing on earth including what lives in the ground such as insects and grubs, plus all plant life. Other times ‘all flesh’ means only people and domestic animals. Sometimes ‘all flesh’ is only people, leaving everything else untouched. On one occasion in the Old Testament, ‘all flesh’ meant only dedicated Christians that were to arise in the New Testament after the resurrection of Jesus and the outpouring of the Holy Spirit.  See more at www.bibleabookoftruth.com

ALL PROMISES FROM GOD HAVE CONDITIONS ATTACHED All through the Bible there are promises made to us, but before the Lord keeps those promises we have to first do something.  Many people are confused when they feel the Lord has not answered their prayers, but they do not realise, every promise written in the Bible comes with conditions.  People read half the verse and become upset when it is not fulfilled for them.  Only if we first fulfil our side of the covenant relationship with the Lord, will He fulfil the promises. Over and over again throughout the scriptures, God tells us what we must do to please Him before we can receive what we want.  People state, “God has promised to give me the desires of my heart so why has that not happened?”  If we look at the whole verse, we can see there is a condition attached to the promise.  Yes, the Lord will give us the desires of our hearts, but first we must delight ourselves in Him. Ther...

NAME ABOVE ALL NAMES ; JESUS OR YESHUA? ‘Have this in your mind which was also in Jesus, Who existing in the form of God, did not consider equality with God something to cling to, but He emptied Himself, taking the form of a Servant, being made in the likeness of men and being found in human form, He humbled Himself becoming obedient to the death of the cross. Therefore God highly exalted Him and gave to Him the name above every name so at the name of Jesus every knee will bow, in heaven, on earth and under the earth (in hell), and every tongue will confess, Jesus the Messiah is Lord to the glory of God the Father’ (Philippians 2:5 to 11). What is THE NAME above all names we are supposed to use? The Bible tells us, Yeshua of Nazareth is the name He seems to prefer. The apostles did miracles using that name. Peter said, "Silver and gold have I none but what I have, I give to you. In the name of Yeshua the Messiah of Nazareth, get up and walk!" (Acts 3:6). ‘Let...

GOOD BIBLICAL NEWS FOR MODERN TEENAGERS There are many pre-teens, teenagers and people in their early twenties who are deeply dedicated to the Lord and serve Him with all their hearts. Sadly, there are those who attend church but they love their lives, disregard the full Gospel and succumb to the temptations of illicit sex, alcohol, drugs and those things can lead to self-pity and depression. Many young people feel the world owes them and they become furious when life does not go their way. Political correctness has brought about a generation of young people with no concept of how to overcome life’s difficulties; the kind of difficulties their parents and grandparents had to overcome in their lives. This modern, Western world has given us a generation of spoilt young people who may fail because a deep sense of narcissism has pervaded their lives. Here are a few hints for life in this difficult world. These hints for the younger generation will never be taught in high school. ...
